Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to create a user-friendly prediction nomogram for the survival chances of elderly patients (65+) suffering from hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH), as previous reports on this topic were limited.
- Data from 204 patients, including a significant number over 80 years old, revealed that larger hematoma volumes increased mortality risk, while better GCS scores at admission were linked to improved survival outcomes at both 7 and 90 days.
- The developed nomogram was found to be accurate and could help neurosurgeons assess patient prognosis and inform families about treatment options.
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the risk factors for patients, who had hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)-specific location hemorrhage without hypertensive history, to elucidate a novel and detailed understanding.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective review to identify patients diagnosed with hemorrhage in hypertensive ICH-specific locations without hypertensive history between January 2011 and December 2019 from West China Hospital. A least absolute shrinkage and selector operation (LASSO) algorithm was used to select the optimal prognostic factors, and then we performed a multivariable logistic analysis.
